how is it possible that there is an error in t777 and not in 738ngx (i think that they uses booth the same database?)

how can be remedied?

in ARPT_RWY.dat i see the follow thing for EBBR

the rw 02 has changed in 01
the rw 20 has changed in 20
so there is a difference betwee the data in my ARPT_RWY.dat in my C:\FSX\PMDG\NAVDATA
and de data in my navigraph date
 
how is this possible and why there is no error in 738 who uses the same data?

That is because the 777 includes RAAS, which uses a separate data source for runways. Changes in scenery can be included in your arpt_rwy.dat file by running MakeRunways here: http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.html

 

EDIT:  The 738 does not have RAAS and does not use arpt_rwy.dat file, that I am aware of.

Hi, Jefken,

 

ARPT_RNWY.DAT is a cache file used by the 777.  It is not part of the Airac cycle data.  As you found, it has retained obsolete data for EBBR.  Back it up to be on the safe side, delete it from the NavData folder and it will rebuild the next time you load a 777.  That will likely fix the problem.
